After a few years of product management, marketing, and operations in tech, startups, and media companies, I spent two years working for myself followed by a brief stint as a full-time reporter covering finance, energy, and jobs. Right now, I'm in build from scratch mode with ABQ Creates (A New Mexico Arts & Cultural District) and doing the occasional consulting project.

I've built out nearly every part of a startup, and still enjoy hanging with startups and founders to talk about growth strategy, product design + dev, and the emotional side of being an entrepreneur. I also think a lot about the world of media, journalism, venture capital, and technology, and semi-regularly write about them on this site and elsewhere.
